REVIEW | BOUQUETCROWNS - FLORAL CROWN


Have you ever feel like wanting to wear a crown like a princess even though your childhood has  actually ended a long time ago? OF COURSE YOU HAVE, ISN'T IT? Don't deny.Well, you do not have to worry because BouquetCrowns' Floral Crown is here to the rescue!



FEATURES OF THIS FLORAL CROWN:

What makes this floral crown different from others is basically you can actually reshape it back when it is out of shape. Not only that, it is adjustable according to your shape of your head as it consists of ribbons for you to tie it at the back. The good thing is you can actually CUSTOMISED it on how you want the floral crown to be. Be it bold or pastel or maybe combination of both! You can choose how big your flower is going to be or vice versa. As for the price range, it is from $12 to $20 (Singapore dollar).


In my opinion, I am so in love with this beautiful floral crown. Even though it is pretty awkward for me to wear it for casual look as it was supposed to wear for special events, I still wear it though because I could not deny the fact that it is just beautiful. I love the features as this kind of floral crown is very unique, different from other floral crowns that I have bought. I just love the fact that I can actually adjust on how I want to put on my head. For me, it is worth buying as the price is affordable so I recommend you girls to buy this beauty. Do not wait because I bet you girls out there will actually love it and wanting more of it. If I were to give a second chance, I will buy it as having just one floral crown in your closet is just not enough.

So, do check it out their Instashop. Type @bouquetcrowns and follow them! They will customise floral crowns based on your liking and for all occasion. So go and follow them.

Thank you @bouquetcrowns for the lovely gift. I really appreciate it so much and not regret accepting it at all.

REVIEWS ON MY LIPSTICKS!

Since young, I have been wondering what is like to wear lipstick. People say, lipstick helps to complete your make up look. I wonder if it is true or is it just a myth? Lipstick looks nice when people wear it but when it comes to me, I feel so insecure. Confidence level : where did you go?

I have changed my perspective since the last time I bought the first lipstick which was last year. It is true what people say, lipsticks can really boost your confidence level so say bye bye low self esteem.

WARNING:
This is just based on my experience and my OWN thoughts on these lipsticks. No one paid for me to do this so it is a HONEST review. You do not have to take it seriously. Take a chill pill alright?

So, here's my lipsticks collection!


It is just only FIVE lipsticks but dayummmm I am so addicted with all of them, like literally. Well, most of the lipsticks that I bought are compilations from the drug stores (e.g. Guardian) and branded ones (e.g. M.A.C).

FIRST: NAKED FROM URBAN DECAY


To be honest, this is my first ever lipstick that I bought. It is the Urban Decay's Revolution Lipstick in Naked. It is creamy shine, rich-pigmented and it is very long lasting. It is also keeps the lip mosturised at all times so do not worry about it! As for the price, it is a bit pricey as it costs about $33 (Singapore dollars). For me, pricey but worth it though. Most of the time, I will wear this whenever I go to school as it gives me the refreshing look. Since this colour is a bit pinkish for my lip, it will give a sweet look as well.

SECOND: ROSE VELVET FROM REVLON


This is Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Rose Velvet (130). You can get at any drugstores such as Guardian or Watsons for just $18.90 (Singapore dollars). This colour is more to nude shades, making it versatile to any skin colours. It pulls off with any eye makeup as this lipstick makes the lips look natural. For me, this lipstick is worth buying. Even though it looks shiny, but when you put onto your lips, it does not look shiny at all. For the matte lovers out there that loves nude colour, I think you will like this lipstick a lot. You will not regret buying it, seriously. I think maybe in the future, I will buy more of this nude colour lipsticks.

THIRD: WHIPPED CAVIAR FROM NYX


Oh gosh, this is only the 3rd lipstick. Bear with me, girls! So, this is NYX's matte lipstick in Whipped Caviar (MLS15). I got mine at Sephora at $12 only but I think you can get it at Guardian as well (I'm not so sure though but you can try and check it out there). This is just a darker version of Urban Decay's Naked. For me, I will follow my mood to actually wear this lipstick. Sometimes, I will mix this lipstick wih Urban Decay's Naked so I will get a matte + shiny lips. Honestly, if you are looking for a cheaper range of lipstick, I recommend NYX lipstick as it is the best compared to the rest. Oh gosh, it rhymes though. Not only it is highly pigmented, it is also last longer than I actually thought it would be.

FOURTH: CATRICE'S THE LIPS ARE ON FIRE


First bright lipstick that I have ever bought. The first but not the last, I promise! This is the cheapest lipstick that you can ever find in Singapore as it costs about $7.90. Cheap, isn't it? Well, I have picked Catrice's Ultimate Colour in The Lips Are On Fire (330) as I wanted to try something bright and experimenting new things. It gives a full-coverage and highly pigmented. It is a creamy-shine lipstick. For me, it is a bit too bright but oh well, makeup is all about experimenting new stuff, whether it suits your face or not. It looks orange at my hand but when I wear it, it looks more towards pinkish orange (okay, I can't deny the fact that I am bad at describing colours but I still tried my best). So, I dare myself to actually try it on. They said that this lipstick is long-lasting but based on my experience, IT IS NOT AT ALL. It will somehow fade away so I disagree on that "fact".

LAST: M.A.C'S DIVA


Many people have been raving about this lipstick so I knew that I just had to buy it. So yeah, I bought it. It is a bit pricey as each M.A.C lipstick costs about $30 (Singapore dollars). It gives off a matte finish and it is very pigmented. It looks like a plum colour but when you wear it, it gives a dark red-maroon colour. For me, although it is pricey, I am addicted to it. It is one of my favourite bold lipsticks. You need to be confidence when you wear this lipstick as it gives a strong impression. For this kind of lipstick, I recommend you to wear a minimal makeup so the main point of this makeup would be the lips.

Finally, it is the end of the review! Phew, I did it. I am so proud of myself. Yay. Any recommendations on beautiful lipsticks that I should look at? Mention me at Instagram or Twitter alright?
